Subcutaneous emphysema is a rare and well-known complication of dental procedures. Many cases go unrecognized and resolve spontaneously, while others may require specific surgical management to prevent complications. We present a case of cervicofacial and mediastinal emphysema which occurred during a routine dental procedure and a review of the literature on differential diagnosis and management.
皮下气肿是牙科手术中一种罕见但广为人知的并发症。许多病例未被识别并自行消退,而其他病例可能需要特定的手术处理以预防并发症。我们报告一例在常规牙科手术过程中发生的颈面部和纵隔气肿病例,并对有关鉴别诊断和处理的文献进行综述。
